Avengers: Age Of Ultron - 1/6 Black Widow from Hot Toys

I remember when I first blogged about Scarlet Johansson as "Natasha Romanoff / Natalie Rushman" as Hot Toys' "Black Widow" in 1/6th scale from the "Iron Man 2" movie adaptation (circa 2010) - of the excitement of seeing the sculpt and the beauty of the facial likeness, and subsequently getting somewhat repetitive releases since then, with the exception of hairstyles and uniforms … then I saw the NEW Black Widow based on Avenger: Age of Ultron, and I am intrigued again! Or maybe I am deceived by the "newly painted head sculpt" with come-hither-lips LOL … hey, I never did own a single BW-figure, okay? So please excuse my indulgence here :p

Last seen on display at Toy Soul 2014, please do feel free to scroll down this post to peruse the images, and official press from Hot Toys. Seek pricing and availability from your fav retailers accordingly :)

"I'm always picking up after you boys."

HOT TOYS PRESS: "A new wave of Hot Toys’ 1/6th scale Collectible Figures based on the highly anticipated Marvel’s Avengers: Age of Ultron is coming as the movie’s release date draws near! Today we are excited to present the deadly female member of the mighty Avengers – the 1/6th scale Black Widow Collectible Figure!

The movie-accurate collectible is specially crafted based on the image of Scarlett Johansson as Black Widow in the film featuring a newly painted head sculpt with short curly brownish-red real fabric hair, newly tailored costume with leather-like trims and blue highlights, detailed new weapons and accessories. " (Hot Toys FB)

Also coming in November are the second series (Series 1) of Wonder Woman Pop!Vinyls - with this wave featuring Diana disguised in her cloak, Etta Candy wielding the God-Killer and Wonder Woman’s shield, and Themyscira’s greatest warrior, Antiope! ”Don’t miss out on the Hot Topic exclusive Diana with Ice Cream Pop!”

“Doctor Strange” appears in this Japanese Trailer for THOR: RAGNAROK, and everybody goes wild! Nah, not necessarily so, but you decide for yourself - in the first few seconds, then everything else we’ve seen before in the SDCC-released trailer, though the end scene with Thor and Hulk bro-chatting is slightly edited to accommodate the good Doctor, I presume … Courtesy of @MarvelStudios, we also have the new Japanese Poster for #ThorRagnarok to gawk at!

THOR: RAGNAROK premieres 3rd of November 2017 in the USA, but is scheduled for release in Singapore on the 26th of October 2017!

No doubt the scene continues from the ending of Marvel’s Doctor Strange film (see clip below), where Strange sits down with the Odinson and chats about his missing father (“Odin”) over a glass of self-sustaining mead AKA “beer”.

This A2-sized print on “metallic” surface card was a surprise find at the recent Artist Market for Illustration Arts Fest 2017, as I was asking for the print image seen on her Instagram (see below), which were (and still is now) available on white-base A3 prints too - which you will find on her online store now … or go bug her direct (erikartoon@gmail.com) for availability! (Tell her TOYSREVIL SENT YOU, so I can score some fanboy brownie-points, thanks!)

Counting down the literal days to the premier of Marvel’s THE DEFENDERS on Netflix, August 18th, we have a couple of videos to share, in anticipation! First up is the above “Final Trailer” for the 13-episode, while featured below is a featurette meant to hype the show, which certainly worked for ME, because I’m hella HYPED for this weekend!

Unveiled are images of actor Josh Brolin in full costume as “Cable” in the upcoming “DEADPOOL 2” live action feature film = a sequel to the wildly successful R-Rated first film! Also seen here are snaps of actress Zazie Beetz as “Domino”, released earlier last week, as PopcornX attempts to feature BOTH these fictional comicbook characters now made reel!

To be directed by David Leitch (co-director “John Wick”, “Atomic Blonde”), “Deadpool 2” is scheduled to be released on June 1, 2018 … BUT the hype machine and anticipation has begun way before this reveal (with No Good Deed), and is a juggernaut waiting to be unleashed upon pop culture again! LOL

Scroll down for a closer-look at both characters, including their comicbook origins!

WHO-IS “CABLE”: "Cable (Nathan Summers) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by Marvel Comics, commonly in association with X-Force and the X-Men. The character first appeared as a newborn infant in Uncanny X-Men #201 (Jan.…

New poster (with English text) for “Tokyo Ghoul” (thanks to natalie.mu), along with character stills for the upcoming live-action adaptation of Sui Ishida’s manga and anime, as directed by Kentarō Hagiwara!

And while we’ve had a chance to see the primary actors/roles in the earlier released teaser, here we get to see the other supporting actors, including Ken’s buddy “Hide”, and folks from tge “Anteiku” cafe - including “Yoshimura”, “Renji”, “Enji” (Devil Ape), “Kaya” (Black Dog), “Uta”! Not forgetting the young girl-Ghoul; “Hinami”!

Marvel turns on their faux-time-machine and pulls out two retrolicious video promos to hawk promote the upcoming release of "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2" to Digital Aug 8, Blu-ray Aug 22 & new to 4K UHD, with the above 70s-Disco music video for “Guardians Inferno” by The Sneepers, featuring David Hasselhoff (Directed by David Yarovesky), which if you strayed for the credits roll of the feature film, would undoubtably recognise (if you were too busy looking for the 5 x post-credits sequences, yeah? :p) … and if you missed the earlier 80’s-styled promo featured below (like I did miss posting it yonks back when it dropped), well, ENJOY!
